objective:in this study, we assess long-term effects of vertical dome division (v.d.d) and suture techniques in patients with bulbous nose deformity and then compare the efficiency of these methods. material and methods: in this study 70 patients with bulbous nose deformity were divided into two equal groups of a and b in which group a with suture (transdomal and interdomal) technique and grou...

Collateral ligament injury can be a cause of ACL graft failure. These ligament injuries must be addressed at revision surgery in order to prevent failure of the revision surgery. In malalignment with associated collateral ligament injury, osteotomy may be the preferred choice to manage the collateral ligament laxity. This outline will describe techniques for managing collateral ligament injury ...

For revision knee surgery with uncontained tibial bone defects, the authors report the containment of compacted morsellized allograft using metal-wire mesh, followed by implantation of a cemented total knee prosthesis. This method is comparable to the "impaction grafting technique" described for revision hip surgery and could be an alternative to metal wedges, augmented components, custom-made ...

OBJECTIVE To characterize revision surgery following V-Y subcutaneous tissue pedicle advancement flap repair of large upper lip skin defects. METHODS Retrospective review of upper lip skin defects at least 3.0 cm(2) in area that were reconstructed with a V-Y subcutaneous tissue pedicle advancement flap at an academic tertiary care center. Depth and area of the defect, as well as involvement o...

With the increase in number of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstructions being performed, and with patients’ desire to return to high-level sports activities, the prevalence of ACL revision has been rising despite recent improvements in ACL reconstruction technique. ACL reconstruction failures can be classified into 3 general categories: recurrent instability, postoperative complications...
